Le Brocq - with three top-three Super2 Series season finishes in four years - will be in safe hands at Tekno.

The new-look outfit will be run by Supercars stalwart Adrian Burgess, who makes a full-time return to the category after being sensationally sacked in May by Holden heavyweight Walkinshaw Racing.

"It's an incredible opportunity to begin my Supercars main game career with Tekno," Le Brocq told speedcafe website.

"I am very excited to be making my Supercars championship start with Adrian Burgess joining the team, alongside a brand new ZB Commodore to drive - it's a dream come true."

Supercars acting CEO Shane Howard said the 2018 field also boasted five New Zealanders, nine former Bathurst champions, seven ex-Supercars winners and again just one female driver - Simona de Silvestro, who returns for her second season.

"This is without doubt the deepest and most talented line-up the sport has seen," he said.

The drivers will converge on the year's first test day on February 16 at Sydney Motorsport Park before the March 1-4 season opener in Adelaide.
